over three years ago, i dropped out of a phd program in neuroscience at the university of british columbia to start working on baby gaga with my partner nick. back then, we were reviewing strollers and getting the hang of designing user-friendly web interfaces. as you can see, we've come a long way since then!
i work primarily in: site design, research and development, and as the in-house artist and writer, as well as acting as the administrator for the forum and our myspace page.
i've done endless hours of research on pregnancy in preparation for our pregnancy calendar and actually studied the anatomy and physiology of pregnancy during college (i have a B.A. in bio-psychology). i've also spent two years doing independent research on human sexuality (of which pregnancy is quite an important part obviously).
i'm very interested in gender politics and trying to find realistic ways to create a more supportive environment for all parents (from teenagers to single mothers of six kids) to be able to educate themselves, as well as work, and raise their children to be happy, responsible, and healthy members of our planet.
we just recently expanded the forum to be more member-centered as well as self-moderating-- and it's been no small task to create some of these tools. at this point we're in the "beta" phase of launching this for live use on the internet and hopefully we'll be able to iron out all the kinks asap.
if you have any questions or suggestions for me, please don't hesitate to shoot me a private message, i'll be more than happy to assist you or answer your queries.

I don't know....it worked when I had last updated it, then I noticed the links were all broken today.
I could update it manually, though it will take a long time, but my concern is that it has happened at random before so it might happen again.
